English term or phrase: billion

The bank posted a 163% rise in underlying pre-tax profit to d3.6bn in 2003 on the back of underlying revenues up 9% to d21.9bn.
the bank是指德意志银行，请问bn到底是万亿还是十亿？
按照下表，它在2003年的收入为几百亿，好象都不符啊？

十亿

Explanation:
十亿

Sorry, I have to retreat my agreement with jyuan_us.
It is obvious in the figures of Global ECM Volume Rankings 2003 that "d" means "dollars" and thus "bn" is used in American style.
That is, "bn" means "billions" as Americans understand it.
